  • This day (09/23/2023) I drove just under 9 hours on only Uber. As always I'm driving to Los Angeles and back from Riverside. Usually there is about 100 dead miles but this day I got rides into and out of LA.
    Total: $300.15
    Miles: 238.9
    Time: 8h 42m (online), 5h 4m (active)
    No Boost+, No Quest, just straight picking.
    Let me know what you guys think in the comments!
    I'm doing my best and getting better at keeping my miles low.
    As for hourly rate, $33.33/hr on this day but I try to strive for higher of course.
    Soon I'll work on showing how to make money on quests and goals.

      One thing I know for sure is that Uber or Lift and other platforms take people for fools and this is called worker trafficking. There is no such money there. Not regularly.

      @@HenryDriverLA it goes without saying, wait till the end to see how you feel about the customers; most of them are honestly not worth approaching sense most of their trips are local. BUT if you are working the airport area, you should be running into frequent travelers, these group are mostly chill and always appreciate reliability. I used to place a cheap phone on my center console as entertainment and I would load it up with music videos followed by personal ad videos that would promote my airport rides(in a formal way, call to action, ref to website and easy booking etc) and a QR code call to action.
      If you need an ice breaker, I would always use the horrible LAX-it experience of other travels to let them know they could save on the airport fee if they order their ride from OUTSIDE the airport area. I would advise them to take any hotel shuttle and call their ride from there; and to save even more “they could book straight through my booking site”. It was a nice ice breaker, they always appreciated the savings.

      Haha yeah certain surges happen ahead of demand. So they only last a few minutes.
      While organic surges happen when theres demand and most drivers were taken out of the area.
      That's why it came back.

    This video is less of a "how-to" and more of a "look at me" showcase. The driver cherry-picks a few high-paying rides, conveniently skips over the waiting times and low-paying trips, and focuses on anecdotes where tips boosted his earnings. While taking airport rides for the potential rematch and focusing on surge areas are valid strategies, the video paints an unrealistic picture of consistent earnings. The reality is, rideshare income is highly variable and depends on factors like time of day, location, and luck. He doesn't teach you how to evaluate rides based on mileage and time, or how to strategically position yourself to maximize earnings. Don't fall for the hype - rideshare driving requires patience, strategy, and realistic expectations, not just chasing surges and hoping for tips.

    • @HenryDriverLA
      @HenryDriverLA  23 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I agree with what ur saying. Its not titled "how to make" its titled "how I made"
      There is no perfect instructional video. Rideshare is luck. You have to make decisions on the spot. Cherry picking is literally the name of the game.
      I also disagree that its unrealistic. Its 100% realistic as i literally filmed it lol. Consistancy depends on you as the driver. Can i make $300 daily? Yes. Will you? Depends on you.
      This isnt a teaching video lol this is an observe video. I tell everyone. Patience planning & positioning. I dont chase surges, i position myself in areas that are hot. I dont work for tips but when they arrive they help.
      Im not trying to compete with you.

      Uber pays an average of 1 dollar per mile. If you want to earn 200-300 dollars, then you have to drive 300 miles per day, and per week that’s 2,000 miles. And in a year, you do the math, the average normal car engine will last, I don’t know, 250 or 300,000. And for replacement.

      Although i agree, the reality has never been that for me. I live in an area that is dead a majority of the time. If i want to make consistant earnings i need to drive to areas that have demand. But once i get to those areas, I pull over and cherry pick my rides. Ive done the whole, wait for a ride to leave my house and wasted half a day for 0 pings.
